This paper describes a rich bivalve fauna from the Tubiphytes‐Limestone Member (Bithynian, early middle Anisian) of the Caerace Formation in North Dobrogea (Romania). We report 51 bivalve species, including 7 new species and 2 new genera: Atrina multicostata sp. nov., Pinna simionescui sp. nov., Chlamys (Praechlamys) prima sp. nov., Entolium reticulatum sp. nov., Scythentolium anisicum sp. nov., Romaniamya mahmudiaensis gen. et sp. nov. and Praedicerocardium vetulus gen. et sp. nov. The latter…

UPPER SPATHIAN TO BITHYNIAN (LOWER TO MIDDLE TRIASSIC) BRACHIOPODS FROM NORTH DOBROGEA (ROMANIA)
Brachiopods obtained from several Triassic localities in North Dobrogea, in Romania, are described. Upper Spathian and Aegean Hallstatt-type red limestones have been sampled in the Desli Caira…
New Triassic Aviculopectinoidea (Bivalvia), with notes on the taxonomic concept of the superfamily
TLDR
It is suggested that tribes are a more appropriate taxonomic rank for many of the previously erected species-poor families and subfamilies of Aviculopectinoidea.
A diverse gastropod fauna from the shallow marine carbonate platform of the Yangou section (south China) in the immediate aftermath of the Permian–Triassic mass extinction
The Permian–Triassic mass extinction (PTME), the most devastating extinction event in Phanerozoic history, has witnessed the demise of almost 80% of marine gastropod genera. Despite the vast scale of…
Paleoecology and paleobiogeography of the Cenomanian-Turonian bivalves from the Southern Galala Plateau (Eastern Desert, Egypt)
The main stage of recovery after the end-Permian mass extinction: taxonomic rediversification and ecologic reorganization of marine level-bottom communities during the Middle Triassic
TLDR
The Early Triassic lag phase represents the time when the reduced species richness in the wake of the end-Permian mass extinction was insufficient for stimulating major diversifications, whereas the Anisian main diversification event started when self-accelerating processes became effective and stopped when niche-crowding prevented further diversification.
Elevated Cranial Sutural Complexity in Burrowing Dicynodonts

TLDR
Increased sutural complexity, rather than cranial fusion, as an adaptation to resisting compressive forces during burrowing may be related to indeterminate growth in dicynodonts.
Dynamics of the Largest Carbon Isotope Excursion During the Early Triassic Biotic Recovery
The dynamics of the carbon cycle across different timescales is crucial for understanding past and present global climate changes. Following the Permian–Triassic boundary mass extinction (PTBME), the…

First report of ostracods (Crustacea) associated with Bithynian (Anisian, Middle Triassic) Tubiphytes‐microbial reef in the North Dobrogean Orogen (Romania)
TLDR
It is concluded that the composition of assemblages is related both to the characteristics of this chemosynthetically‐driven habitat and to bathymetry, and that some taxa, such as the genus Liuzhinia, are typical of Triassic microbial ecosystems.
Middle Triassic (Anisian, Bithynian) gastropods from North Dobrogea (Romania) and their significance for gastropod recovery from the end‐Permian mass extinction event
TLDR
The Mahmudia fauna suggests that metazoan reefs recovered more slowly than benthic faunas, and sheds light on the pattern of ongoing recovery from the end‐Permian mass extinction event.
Olenekian (Early Triassic) bivalves from the Salt Range and Surghar Range, Pakistan
TLDR
Ten of 15 species recognized in this study have not been reported from other regions, which may indicate increasing provincialism towards the end of the Early Triassic, or reflect the still insufficient knowledge of faunas from the epoch that followed the greatest crisis in the history of life.

LATEST TRIASSIC–EARLIEST JURASSIC BIVALVES OF THE GERMIG FORMATION FROM LANONGLA (TIBET, CHINA)
Abstract The Germig Formation of the Tethyan Himalaya of southern Tibet contains an exceptionally abundant bivalve fauna which has been found in association with choristoceratid and psiloceratid…
Bivalves from the Olenekian (Early Triassic) of south-western Utah: systematics and evolutionary significance
The recovery from the end-Permian mass extinction event was a key interval in the history of life, but few modern studies provide systematic data on benthic marine faunas from the epoch immediately…
Diversity, palaeoecology and systematics of a marine fossil assemblage from the Late Triassic Cassian Formation at Settsass Scharte, N Italy
TLDR
The present assemblage underlines the pronounced heterogeneity of the Cassian biota and is interpreted as an autochthonous soft bottom assemblages dominated by species that lived in low epifaunal to shallow infaunal habitats.
Oysters and oyster-like bivalves from the Middle Triassic Muschelkalk of the Germanic Basin
TLDR
It is demonstrated that N. speculostreum was invariably attached by its right valve, in contrast to an externally similar species from the Lower Muschelkalk Freudenstadt Formation that was exclusively cemented by its left valve, and thus represents the geologically oldest known oyster species.
Pinnidae (Bivalvia) from the Reuchenette Formation (Kimmeridgian, Upper Jurassic) of northwestern Switzerland
